What if

What if the world we lived in wasn't dominated by our culture. What if invading white people were only a minority to the indigenous people here in America? What if their culture dominated and flourished and changed. What if they industrialized and then became post-industrialist fatsos? I think that Artisan cheese makers would featured on national geographic programs and travel channel programs. I would be the equivalent of poison dart maker or drum skin stretcher, or like one of those southeast asian guys who serves the blood of cobras. I mean cheese would probably be seen as some disgusting taboo food. A film crew would come in and jabber in a foreign language at me, dressed in my strange terrifying costume of white sanitation suit, hat and booties, then go home and show everyone my savage behavior with the caveat that strangeness and taboo are all relative. Somewhere out there a thousand bored people would tune and tell themselves THEY would have the guts to eat some of that disgusting curdled milk. Somewhere brown skinned men and women would dress up in sanitation suits and cut curds using stereotypical english phrases like "howdy cowboy" and "God bless you" for tourists, who at the end of it all get some Velveeta on a toothpick made of bone.
